HiThis is my first post here.I want to show you my simple "plotter".it is not very precise because of the servos. But it works.The software reads plt files (eg Corel Draw).Software and source code I will send soon.

I can't make a picture (my camera doesn't work) so I've made some drawings.

draw 1:draw 2:

Important:-When arm is setted as shown on draw 2, servos have to be in their middle positions (90 degree)-distance between servo 1 and servo 2 has to be the same as distance between servo 2 and servo 3-length of the parts is not very important

I think that everyone here know how to connect servos to the arduino so I will not describe it.

Hey man, very cool project. You should just work on the appearance of the arm more and it should be perfect.How do u know that the servo has reached the required angle for a specific x,y location...before feeding the next angular position??I really need[ch65279] to know how this is implemented.Thanks.

I'm confused as well. Can you kindly explain again from where do you get the measurement of the servo angle...when it doesn't have any feedback.I really appreciate your help. It's essential for me to understand this, as I'm doing a somewhat similar project, and it's driving me nuts!
